Last year, and the year before, we met at the Northwest corner of the Robinwood Baptist Church parking lot (111 E. Stark Rd. Seagoville, TX 75159), and rolled out at 8:00 AM. I'm sure Kenny will confirm this later.
 
Kenny, we arrived too early last year. What about leaving later, so maybe we will still be there when the ice cream arrives in the early afternoon?

I ride the trike on this ride, since I don't have to race anyone, and it's a pleasant alternative.  Plus, you can look the terrible chihuahuas in the eye!    Smiley

I might do a ride to the ride and leave from Poteet HS and head to the church.  Should add around 30 miles round trip.  Will wait and see what Kenny publishes as the "official ride" but I estimate this will make the ride and the ride to the ride approximately 100k.  Let me know if anyone else is interested in this as well.
